Thanks for this explanation. I think a lot of people were seeing smaller
numbers than PrimeNet showed and not really understanding the reason why.
I would like to put together a "producers" report for each client under my
account. Can you provide the formula you use so I can see how each client
contributes relative to its peers? Even though your page doesn't keep track
of factoring, do you have a formula that would allow me to compare factoring
contributions as well?
Thanks,
Carleton Garrison
